One of the Good Guys by Araminta Hall is a gripping psychological thriller that explores themes of gender, power, and the dangers hidden beneath the surface of so-called “nice guys.” The story follows Cole, a seemingly kind and thoughtful man who relocates to a quiet coastal town for a fresh start after a failed marriage. When two young women disappear during a protest against gender violence, Cole and his new partner Leonora become caught in a media storm and police investigation. Told through multiple perspectives and woven with news clippings and social media posts, the novel challenges readers to question how well we truly know the people around us—and ourselves. With a tense atmosphere and sharp feminist commentary, this book keeps you questioning who to trust until the very end.
